The Holy imperial dominion of Diopolis is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Aethelstan XXIV with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.074 billion Diopolisitia are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Roma. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 87.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Diopolisian economy, worth a remarkable 6,279 trillion Habrans a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 297,957 Habrans, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Grumbling early morning commuters bemoan having to travel to work in the dark, mouldy bread is served as an appetizer in many restaurants, delivery truck companies use hospital parking lots to store 16-wheelers, and research into 'designer babies' is banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Diopolis's national animal is the Bearwolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Diopolisian Rite Catholicism.

Diopolis is ranked 280,892nd in the world and 11,246th in Balder for Most Cultured, scoring 57 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
